Taco Thursday at Bayou Fish House!

Well they kept tweeting about fish tacos and I finally had to take the bull by the horns and grab my coworkers and go! Even though Thursday is our busy day - we headed out for some good eats!

It looks a lot different than Nuvo inside but it's a much different type of place. This is casual dining at it's best. Terry was cooking up some delicious food and it was pretty much a one-man operation here - and he was fantastic! The menu is on the wall so just let him know what you want and he'll prompt you for other goodies along the way. There are a handful of tables but there's quite a bit of take-out ordering as well.

Matt & Beth - well - they're special coworkers.

In addition to the fish tacos, we all got sides. I tried the gumbo ($2.25) and it was AMAZING! So thick and rich and dark and flavorful! It was also fairly spicy - I was glad I had the sweet tea to calm it down. Wowza! This was delicious!

Terry told us about something new on their menu - Bayou Bites. They are jalapeno rings, battered and fried and served with a spicy sauce (mayo based I'm guessing). These were AWESOME! Matt was kind enough to share and thank goodness - I'm getting these for myself next time!

A few weeks ago - an anonymous commenter said my coworker Beth was "cute" - so I decided to put up another pic of her. You might wanna rethink that one anonymous! HAHAHAHA - JUST KIDDING!!! I love my Beth - we were having a very fun lunch that day.

She went for the cole slaw as her side ($2.25) - it was pretty good - she liked that it wasn't overly creamy.

And finally - the fish taco goodness. On Thursday these are $6.95 and they're starting to add in Shrimp Tacos (omg - I'll be right there!). I think Terry said these were made with whiting and they had the same sauce as the bayou bites. Amazing! And with three of them - we definitely didn't need the sides - they were so filling! Every one of us was raving over these fish tacos - they are awesome.

I also tried a couple bites of the fish on it's own - so delicious! Crisp, flaky and not greasy. They have a good thing going here!
